Feed Manager not updating

Sorry for bugging you again Joe, but I am having issues getting my feed mangers to update. I am running two that point to local blogs, and one that points to a remote site (AP). I can't link you my site, as it is not public yet. but here is the AP feed I am pointing at: hosted.ap.org/lineups/SPORTSHEADS-rss_2.0.xml

I have been monitoring the logs and this is the only error that I see:

ForumThreadIndexBuilderProvider indexing page - Home

Re: Feed Manager not updating

Oh, the only way I can currently get them to update, is via the "Clear feed cache" button. I have waited 2-3 hours, and chaged the feed, and entry cache timers to no avail.

Re: Feed Manager not updating

Hi,

Did you check in the feature settings (click the gear icon next to the title), the default feed entry is I think either 120 or 240 minutes. You can set a lower amount of minutes and tat should help.

Best,

Joe

Re: Feed Manager not updating

Yes, I did that, I set both timeouts with different values, latest being 1. Still no joy.

Re: Feed Manager not updating

Oh, I verified that both IWAM, and IUSER, and ASPNET accounts have full control to the Data folder.

Re: Feed Manager not updating

I did notice that the file it is trying to rename does not exist, can I just create a blank file, and name it that?

Re: Feed Manager not updating

This error is not related to feed manager but to the search index. I would try rebuilding the search index. If you continue to have problems start a new thread for this issue.

I'm still investigating the feed manager cache issue I have not yet confirmed the problem.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: Feed Manager not updating

Regarding the feeds not updating. Are you verifying that both the time period that has gone by is greater than the feed entries cache duration and that the actual feed if viewed directly has new items?

For example if testing by consuming the blog from the same site which gives you more control than monitoring an external feed since you can add posts, but keep in mind that new blog posts may not appear immediately in the feed because the output of the feed is cached for 30 minutes. So if I set a low cache duration like 5 minutes on the feed manager and then I make a new blog post in a blog consumed by the feed, it may be up to 30 minutes before th new post exists in the feed itself. I'm testing this now myself and will know in about 30 minutes whether its a bug or not.

Best,

Joe

Re: Feed Manager not updating

I tried to recreate it on the demo site. Basically the site has 5 users who are going to be blogging, and I wanted to create a snapshot display (kind of like a blog roll) on the home page. They are also going to be posting videos, to a different blog that I also wanted to display on the front page. They are expecting their posts to show up soon after they post them in these synopses.

http://demo.mojoportal.com/home.aspx - feed manager is on here
http://demo.mojoportal.com/blog.aspx - pulls from this blogs rss

This is so I can have a sort of blog summary on the front page. I tried uploading a image of how I have it set up to here http://demo.mojoportal.com/111new-page.aspx however I am not sure if it made it or not, it reported success. If you want I can email it to you.

Re: Feed Manager not updating

I cannot reproduce any problem with the feed cache not updating it updates as expected in my testing.

I could possibly add a config setting to allow you to disable the caching of the blog feed output.

But in general feed aggregators I have seen and used including google reader do not update in real time but on a periodic basis. First because its rude to keep requesting the feed of a site over and over in real time causing exaggerated load on the web site, its much better manners for a feed aggregator to just check periodically. Its no different on sites like Weblogs.asp.net they aggregate but not in real time.

Showing videos and other rich media in feeds is problematic from a security point of view. No external feed should be trusted and NeatHtml will remove such things. I will investigate the possibility of a setting to disable NeatHtml in the feed manager for those who want to do this.

Currently the only way to make it real time and allow rich content like videos is for all 5 users to use the same blog and put that on the home page and show the authors name next to each post.

Best,

Joe
